About Us

Welcome to the Syracuse Biomaterials Institute!We are an interdisciplinary institute focused on research in biological materials, from the properties of individual cells, to their organization into tissues and organs, to the development of smart medical devices. Areas of focus range from applied biomaterials research, aiming at designing natural and synthetic substances designed to treat, augment, or replace tissues and organs of the human body as treatments to disease or injury, to fundamental research into the interactions between biological matter and non-living materials.
